Games Master Challenge 2013
The eighth annual Games Master Challenge began on November 25, 2013 and concluded on December 2, 2013. Each day, users were given several Games Room related challenges by Aristotle A. Avinroo to complete.
After Brains beat Brawn and Ninjas beat Pirates in previous years, this year saw Team Sun lead by Siyana compete with Team Moon led by Princess Lunara. Players could join one of the two teams to help them win the competition. The two teams received some different challenges to each other.
For the first time since 2009, Lulu did not appear in conjunction with this event. Instead, players could visit Reslen's planetarium in the NC Mall.
Teams
In order to participate, users first had to join a team. As a reward for joining a team, users were given an exclusive sign up bonus of a wearable based on the corresponding team that they chose.

The sun's energy is crucial in many ways in Neopia life. That's why it's only right that we should celebrate its awesomeness with a tribute like this challenge! | |

Princess Lunara and Team Moon | |
There are few things more beautiful than the moon's luminescent glow. Those who appreciate the ethereal quality of the moon's soft, pale light should definitely join Team Moon! | |

Judging by the file names of Siyana's images - e.g. http://images.neopets.com/games/gmc/2013/popup_amira.png - the original leader of Team Sun was meant to be Princess Amira.
